New site good or bad?

17 Jan 2006

What does everyone think about the new and re-vamped SH website?
I am finding that I am getting fewer replies and people who are interested. The old site was more successful for me and I think I preferred it.
I wonder what the reason was for changing it? Why does everything have to change all the time?

Getting better

Times change, new owners, give it time they will iron out all the problems

Oh, poor you. That's life, deal with it. Nothing else you can do, unless you know somewhere else to go.

because if things didn't change they'ed stay as they are and I for one don't much fancy a dose of the plague which I'm guessing rates alongside tooth ache and stubbing your toe on the pain scale. I'm also guessing that waking up to find a mammoth has taken a dump on your lawn, is gonna piss me off far more than next doors cat does now.

I know what you mean. They gave me these "electric light bulbs" when my gas lamps worked so well for me. Said they'd be better, they did. Blooming things keep burning out though. Dashed progress! Bah! They'll be having horseless carriages next...

That will never happen... Though some say that "horseless carriages" will lead to "Global warming". Which is a load of old pants.....

If you joined after the new site went live then you have unpaid and paid members. The unpaid members do not have full access to everything on the site. That explains some of the strange wording in the ads etc.

I would like to thank SH for making the site Far better. The search by distance and postcode addition has been a great help, also the new locals in your area on by Homepage is BRILLIANT!
Thanks Adrian lol

I do genuinely mean this in a friendly way and I have not been around much to get to know you frecklebird, but how long does it take for you to be nice to people? All other replies to this very reasonable query were fair and constructive.
I have just had a quick zoom through some of your past posts and it seems you don't show a great deal of warmth or respect for newbies here but are fine with your obvious buddies- just so I know. 1000 posts perhaps?
You seem a nice bloke, regularly contributing - I don't know why you need to be abrupt to some people and not others? Maybe with the number of posts you have done that you are fed up with the same questions week after week?
I personally find the site fine and dandy without noticing too much of a change in overall look and speed. But this kind of site is generally only as good as its members....

18 Jan 2006

i for one likes the new s/h site only downer for me is the post codes ... am not to clued up as to where post codes relate to but naming the place gives an instant idea as to how far, just a small gripe !!!!!

18 Jan 2006

To be honest it is the people on here that make the site what it is and I think you are all gggggreat. :thumbup:
However from a technical point of view I can appriciate the hard graft that has gone on behind the scenes to keep this place up and running over the last month or so and now most of the glitches have been Smashed out using the SH maintenance hammer things are getting a lot better. So a big thank's from little "old" me to all involved :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:
See I can be nice and sensible :twisted: :silly:

Cut and paste is the way forward saves any embarising spelling mistakes confused

Also I can see the reason for your mistake..............................................................................
...................................................a real life female on the internet :shock: now that is a rarity smile

I really should stop myself from saying this but her attitude just made me think she was a chap. When is she usually on so I can hide?

embarising

I cut and pasted that - but it was still spelt wrong wink
